CYBERJAYA: Telekom Malaysia Bhd (TM) plans to expand its data centre space based on the demand by its clients both from the public and private sectors.
TM group chief executive officer Imri Mokhtar said there was still vacant areas surrounding its Klang Valley Core Data Centre (KVDC) in Cyberjaya, but the company was also eyeing on land outside the area.
It also owns the Iskandar Puteri Core Data Centre (IPDC) in Johor, with 350,000 sq ft in gross floor area.
Currently, the occupancy for both KVDC and IPDC is more than 50 per cent and there is a need for expansion to meet the demand.
Imri said based on the current take up rate of TM's data centre solutions, it foresees high demands for data storage from customers, both domestic and international.
Besides that, he said TM One's world-class Uptime Institute Tier III certified KVDC would undergo a capacity expansion by December 2021, to further provide support to the MyDigital initiative.
To date, all TM One Data Centres are built with the focus on being carrier-neutral facilities with green building design, highly interconnected networks, high availability and security, while ensuring compliance with Malaysia's data residency laws and industry-specific regulations.

SEPANG: Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) is eyeing a total investment of about RM1.3 billion to regenerate Subang Airport into "more than just a city airport".
MAHB subsidiary KLIA Aeropolis Sdn Bhd general manager Randhill Singh said the investment was on the card as the airport operator would want to generate greater yields from leasing its facilities within the ecosystem.
Randhill said the initial development for the masterplan would begin in early 2022 with the setting up of two MRO facilities slated to be operationalised by 2023.
"The MRO facilities are for helicopter, light aircraft and business jets in Subang Airport. We will announce the two MRO players under a few agreements that will be signed in the coming months," he said.
Randhill said the investment would be mainly for lettable building facilities such as hangar, factories, aerospace manufacturing plants and MRO.
"Upon completion, we will have about 8.0 million sq ft in additional capacity (space) for airside, landslide and common infrastructure facilities," he added.
Randhill said the masterplan development would cover about 250 acres out of the total 400 acres available for industrial development.
This in turn was expected to generate about RM5 billion in economic output in the next five years, he added.
"Currently, we have developed about 60 acres, representing 25 per cent of the total development of 250 acres. We expect a payback in 10 years for the whole development.
